Release notes Smart Controller Firmware v2.3.0

We are pleased to announce the release of Smart Controller
Firmware v2.3.0, which introduces support for SMS - VRINX reader interface
boards.

This release enables a new, cost-effective migration path
from SMS to Acre Access Control (AAC) for a specific segment of existing SMS
customers. 

What’s New in v2.3.0

With this firmware update, the acre Smart Controller can now
operate with VRINX as a downstream board. This allows customers to:

  • Replace an existing SMS controller with an acre Smart Controller
    • Keep existing VRINX boards
      • Migrate to AAC without a full hardware replacement
